Back pain during pregnancy is probably one of the most common issues. With the weight of the baby shifting the centre of gravity, no wonder your body ends up suffering from these changes. Our Women’s health expert give your 10 top Tips to have a painless back during your pregnancy
Here are 10 ways to help relieve back pain during your pregnancy.
Postnatal rehabilitation is an important step in recovery after birth, pregnancy being one of the first causes of pelvic floor weakening. But the more you age and the more your muscles lose their tonus, including pelvic floor muscles. The arrival of menopause later in life brings hormonal and physical imbalance, which can worsen a pelvic floor already weak and lead to women’s health issues such as urinary incontinence, prolapse or sexual problems.
This is why pelvic floor and urinary rehabilitation will be useful not only after having a child, but also at all stage of a woman’s life.
The 9 months of pregnancy put women’s body through so many changes, whether it is physical or hormonal, which often lead to some kind of pain or discomfort that can be prevented or treated. As if it wasn’t enough, they also need to prepare themselves for delivery and rehabilitation after birth.
So how women should look after their body during pregnancy and think ahead about postnatal recovery?
